William Blake was a major influence on Allen Ginsberg and on 'Howl,' especially 'Footnote to Howl' with its exclamations of 'Holy! Holy! Holy!' and ecstatic repetition.

HowlAtCLP | Dec 5, 2009 |

An extraordinary collection. Blake was one of the most amazing poets ever to have written in English. The language would have been poorer had he not existed. (

An eternal source of inspiration. Beyond staggering. (
